  1. name(s) of the primary musician(s) playing on the sound recording

There may be earlier recordings of the tune under different names, but the recording entered here must match the title of the tune entry. If a recording is already entered, and you have an earlier instance of a sound recording with the tune title, you may substitute so that the earliest verifiable recording is reached.
  3. record label and identification number of the recording (e.g. Rounder CD 0437, or Bluebird 89770)
